NUS report on 'student experience' for QAA - over simplistic

http://www.qaa.ac.uk/Publications/InformationAndGuidance/Documents/Student-Experience-Research-2012-Part-1.pdf

This report is ment to be ‘evidence based’. Please can NUS tighten up its act when publishing important and influential work like this. Some kind of literature review would be good. And a few more focus groups, it seems very thin to base findings on at this level

 

 


Million+ project 'teaching that matter'

http://www.millionplus.ac.uk/research/teaching-that-matters

 

this project provides a range of innovative case studies that have tried to support staff and students to review the way they teach and learn. There are a wide range of case studies, familiar ideas I’ve seen before, some technoically (e.g. pebblepad, second life) enabled and many that try to re-connect learning with a specific context.
